In the beginning of the book there is an old boar, name Old Major, who is pretty much the leader of the animals while they are still controlled by Jones. Major tells the animal that a day will come when animals are no longer oppressed by humans and live life on there own and do as they wish. Major tells them that there will soon be a revolution within the animals on the farm. Major didn't live too much longer, but was correct in foreseeing the future of the farm, which Jones owned and operated.

In the beginning the dreams of the animals was to create a society of animals in which all of the animals are created equal. There dreams which they felt were possible to accomplish were not that far off in the future. Weeks later the animals revolted and chased Jones from the farm along with his wife. Now that they had Jones out of the house they were free to run the farm the way the animals see fit. They had a mo

After Snowball's dismissal, Napoleon decides that he wants to build the windmill that Snowball had already drawn up plans for. He steals Snowball's plans and begins immediate construction on the windmill. At this point, Napoleon begins to distance himself from the rest of the animals and begins to take up quarters inside Jones' house, which was strictly forbidden at the beginning of the rebellion. All the animals don't know quite what to make of this new event. The other animals are told by another pig that it's all right that he stays in the house and that he is breaking no rules, and the animals agree. Napoleon throughout the book brainwashes the other animals into being servants for him and the other pigs on the farm. All the animals, except for the pigs, work harder than ever on the farm.

Towards the end of the book, Napoleon becomes a dictator who runs the farm with an iron fist. Anyone who goes against Napoleon is dealt with by death. The animals though still don't see what is happening, they think that it is all for the good of the farm. All the other animals believe anything that comes out of the pig's mouth. Because now the pigs know that they can lie and manipulate words to suit whatever the moment might be. Napoleon even sold Boxer to the slaughterhouse just to be able to get money for the farm. The pigs become to act the exact way that Jones had acted, which was the reason for the rebellion. They start to have human contacts, which they trade and do business, which was unheard of in the early days.

At one point Jones decided that he was going to try to take the farm back by storm. Jones and some men came through the front gate wielding a gun and some of the men carried sticks. The group of men decided that they would head straight for the cow shed and starts from there taking the farm back. When they got to the cowshed there was a great ambush that was planned by the animals. All the animals, great and small, began to attack the men in any way they could. Boxer, who wa
